FreeOTFE 4.71

FreeOTFE (on the fly encryption) is an open source tool for safe-keeping of your files through encryption. FreeOTFE allows you to create virtual encrypted disk drives - either as files on your harddisk or on an entire harddisk partition. The virtual drive is encrypted using AES, Blowfish and other cyphers. FreeOTFE also has a "portable mode" allowing you to have and use encrypted drives on removable devices such as USB drives. The file created by FreeOTFE has no signature or other features that identifies it - so any outsider will not be able to determine that it is an encrypted file system.
A version for PDA (Windows Mobile 2003/2005) is also available.
